The report of the special committee of Council appointed to visrt Lake Simcoe to inquire into the practicability of supplying the city with water by gravitation has been issued. It is a pamphlet of about 40 pages, illustrath with a. map showing the water shed cf the lake. The conclusion of the ex- haustive report is in brief as follows :â€"“ We were thoroughly satisfied with the result of our visit and cannot recommend in too strong terms the advisability or depending on Lake Siiiicoe as the main source of our water supply.“ The water is not of such a very high standard of purity as that of Lake Ontario. but the point is made that it is much less liable to sewage contamination and is better than 33 out of 42 samples of the water supply of the. largest cities on the continent. The committee asks for an ap- propriation of $12,000 for the purpose of discovering the cheapest route for a conduit capable of bringing 120,000,000 gallons per day to the city.â€"Safurday’s Globe. Wedding Bells. One of the gayest. and most brilliant gatherings ever convened in the County of York was last Wednesday, at the residence of Abner Cherry, Esq., Fishrryille, the oc- c..sion being the marriage of his youngest daughter, Ruth Sophia. The bridegroom was Thomas H. M. Hulse, of Schomberg. The attendance was exceedingly largo, many invited guests being present from Guelph, St. Mary‘s, Toronto, Weston, Schombi‘rg, he ceremony was performed in the Presbyterian Church, Fisherville, at 7 p. m., the officiat- iiig ministers being Rev. B. L. Hutton. of Kirkton. and Rev. Mr. Wilson, pastor of the church. Miss Holmes presided at the organ and played sweetly before and after the ceremony. The bride entering the church leaning on the arm of her father looked lovely, the very picture of beauty, dressed in cream cashmere and silk. Miss Mabley, sister of the bride, and Walter Hulse, cousin of the bridegroom, performed their respect- lve parts remarkably well. Proceeding from the church, which was filled to its full capacity, to the public hall, ovar one bund red and fifty guests partook of a. sumptuous supper, the tables laden with the best of chi-ything, and an ample abundance. The presents to the newly-wedded couple were i.umerous,useful and CuStly Among them was a music stand and Bible to the bride from the Presbyterian Church, she having been for some time past theii organist, and will be greatly missed. During the evening the happy couple started on their bridal tour. put-posing to spend a. few weeks in sight.- seeing, takingin the Mackinaw trip. They left with the congratulations and best wishes of many waer friendsâ€"Con. “Why do I Believe the Bible?” In accordance with a previous announce mentdlie Rev. J. C. Speer, last Sabbath eve- ning, delivered a sermon on the above sub- ject, choosing for his text. verse 160 of 11S) Psalm, “Thy Word is true from the be- ginning." After describing the tower-like construction of the 119 Psalm the rev. gen- tleman said that a. man’s life was the prac- tical outcome of his faith, that the word of God is true although improper translations had given sceptics room to criticise. He be. lievcd the Bible because of the fulfilmmt of its prophesies, giving as illustrations the prophescs of Daniel in the Old Testament, and the foretellings of Jesus in the New Testament concerning the fall of Jerusalem. The description of the event as given by historians, some of whom were unacquaint- ed with the Scripture and others bitter op- ponts, confirmed the fulfilment of prophesy. Because it was scientifically true, it could nuke no errors in science for it was the word of inspiration, so far from being behind the age it. had anticipated recent discoveries. Because of its accuracy in natural history, in every botanical reference from the hissop on the wall to the Cedar of Lebauon, and it was the name in zoology and astronomy. Wise men in all ages had written on all these subjects and wrote the vcriest nonsenSt . men of every shade of character, in every state in society, of every degree of education, thousands of miles apart and with centuries of time between them, yet not one has con- tradicted another or made a single mistake in all tlieccntnries. It. tells us that there is a God, the originator of all life; it. dia- mentality with such accuracy that our inner concicusncss instinctively ric- knowledges that. “it. is true from the begin- ning." The rev. gentleman concluded an able and instructive sermon by stating that time would not allow him to proceed further but the blazing light of the nineteenth cen- tury presented a multitude of evidences why he should believe the Bible. Presbyterian Church. Rev. Mr. Fulcher, of Bethany Presbyterian Church, Chicago, will conduct. the Prepara- tory Serviue in the Presbyterian Church on Friday evening at 8 o‘clock.
